Hi,
I am using diablo-jdk-1.5.0.07.01_6

Ok, that works for me. So should work for you. You talk about copying your
content from the build to the webapps directory. Why don't you place your build
directory in the webapp directory, so building will place the files on the
rights location and than reloading is enough.
